“Kane really about to bring football home” – Twitter erupts in joy as Tottenham superstar saves England against Tunisia

It just had to be him! Harry Kane pulled England out of a right old mess as the Tottenham striker scored a late header to give the Three Lions a win in their opening World Cup fixture against Tunisia.

The Spurs man had opened the scoring in the 11th minute and there were expectations that the European side would pummel Tunisia after the first goal.

However, previous misgivings of England came to the fore as the side didn’t put away the African team and then Kyle Walker was penalised for a bit of a swing in the box when there was little danger.

A penalty was awarded to Tunisia which Ferjani Sassi coolly slotted past Jordan Pickford. Try as they might, England could not find a way past the Tunisian defence and when it all looked gloomy for the Three Lions, Kane peeled away from a corner and expertly headed home the goal in the 91st minute.

Twitter, expectedly so, went crazy after the game and here are some of the best reactions to the man wonder’s match-saving goal

Wow. I have never ever loved a Spurs player as much as Harry Kane. I genuinely feared he wouldn’t score at all this World Cup (unbelievably pessimistic, I know) and he only goes and bags a brace to bring football home. Never ever disrespect this 🐐 again. pic.twitter.com/agXp2gEe2z

26-year-old Tottenham star finds himself on Juventus’ radar for the January window

Juventus have made Christian Eriksen one of their top targets as they try to add quality in the winter window, according to Tuttosport (h/t Daily Mail).

The report adds that Paul Pogba, Adrien Rabiot and Aaron Ramsey are all targets for the Serie A giants, and a reunion with the Manchester United man is their first choice.

Should a move not work out for Pogba, Eriksen is the man Juventus believe they can get. The Dane has struggled with injury this season at Tottenham and has recorded a single goal for the side.

Juventus have made it a habit of getting some quality players on the cheap and Eriksen is yet to sign a new deal with Spurs.

The attacking midfielder has been missed this season but we have done a decent job without him. Spurs are fourth in the Premier League just five points behind Manchester City, and our next clash is against Chelsea after the international break.

Eriksen has had a tough time with an injury this season but has recovered from the abdominal issue. The 26-year-old played the entire 90 against Wales and is expected to play again before the end of the international break.
